The Unstoppable Comeback Of the Unrivaled Ex-Wife-Chapter 288 - 285

Geronimo slammed the table and yelled, "Am I still the head of this house or what? Do you all want to give me a heart attack?!"

Joanna got a headache from listening to their argument. She silently signed the contract and said, "It’s done. I’ll transfer the money to Liam’s personal account immediately. Please tell him that I’m grateful for everything he’s done for me over the years. We won’t see each other anymore from now on."

After that, she turned around and left the Blackwood Mansion.

She felt a little lonely, but more than that, she felt relieved.

Over the years, she had been receiving unconditional help from Liam. It had actually placed a heavy burden on her heart.

When Geronimo made the request, she took advantage of it to distance herself from him, hoping to have a clear conscience.

However, Liam and her built the Stellar Group together after all, so it would take some time to make a clean break.

Joanna was determined to take care of this matter as soon as possible!

In the Blackwood Mansion.

Liam finally regained his freedom.

Clara cleaned his wounds for him with teary eyes.

"Why did the old man suddenly decided to show me mercy? Why did he suddenly let me out and even said he would hand over the inheritance to me?... Did Boss actually raise enough money?"

Liam looked at Clara with a sharp gaze and asked.

’That’s right. Who knows where she got so much money from. That’s why Dad let you out. The two of them even signed a contract..."

Clara told Liam about the contract.

"Damn it!"

Liam flipped out. He stood up and stormed out before Clara could finish applying the medicine. "How long was she gone for? I’ll go after her!"

"Don’t. I already told you, Dad asked her to sign a contract. If you two have any further contact, she’ll have to pay a large penalty. If you keep pestering her, you’ll just cause her trouble."

’That contract is bullshit! I’ll tear it up right now!"

"Liam, please calm down. Don’t do anything hasty. I think... you should bear with it for now. If you make Dad really mad, he might lay a hand on Joan."

Clara knew her father very well. She knew that he was a schemer.

He would not have created such a "disgusting" contract otherwise.

She speculated that Geronimo must have a plan in place to deal with Liam. If Liam blindly ran into Geronimo’s trap, Joanna would be the one to pay the price.

’Then what should I do? I can’t cut off all contact with Boss! I can’t do it!"

Liam covered his face with his large hands, feeling painful and helpless.

He suffered heavy punishment on his body, and before he could fully recover, he received a heavy blow on his mind. He felt like he was on the brink of collapsing...

"Don’t worry, I have a plan..." Clara said meaningfully.

After listening to Clara’s plan, Liam’s furrowed brows finally relaxed a bit.

At that moment, Geronimo came to his room. Geronimo seemed extremely proud, like a victorious general.

"Son, how are you doing? Are you disabled yet?"

He spoke to Liam with a smile. He was obviously in a good mood.

Liam’s expression was cold. He did not even want to take one look at Geronimo. "Thanks to my father’s mercy, I’m still breathing."

’Tsk tsk, sounds like you’re still angry with me. I did it for your own good. As my son, you can have any woman you want. Why do you have to go after a divorcee?"

"Fortunately, the divorcee has some conscience in her. She raised enough money to pay back your debt with the bank. In a way, it shows that you’re indeed my son. You have some charm..."

Geronimo proudly patted Liam’s shoulder. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

There were still some deep whiplash marks on Liam’s shoulder, so Liam immediately winced in pain.

Clara instantly spoke up for her brother. She said angrily, "Dad, Liam has been courting Joanna for years. Now that he finally managed to open up Joanna’s heart a little, you... smashed everything into pieces and made them cut off all contact! How can you be so cruel? You’re even more cruel than the people who broke up Romeo and Juliet!"

"And I’m surprised you still know that he’s your son. You were threatening to kill him! Sure enough, everything changes when the money arrives. It appears other people were right to call our Blackwood family a nouveau riche; we change our attitude the moment we see money!"

"Shut up, you brat! You just have to argue with me every single day, don’t you!"

Geronimo’s face flushed red after being scolded by Clara, but he was too fond of his little girl to really get mad. Instead, he happily said, "What I’m doing is hitting two birds with one stone. Not only did I help your brother solve his financial crisis, I also helped him sever a bad relationship. You two are still too green behind the ears to understand my profound paternal love..."

After that, he turned to Liam again with a rather serious expression and said coldly, "I believe your sister has already explained the situation to you. If you dare to get involved with that divorcee again, she’ll be the one paying the price."

Liam snorted. The look he gave Geronimo contained no respect, only disappointment and indifference. "Can you tell me why? You’ve always let me do whatever I wanted. Why must you take a hard stance in this matter? Why is any woman in the world okay but not Joanna?"

"If you want to know, I’ll make it clear to you today..."

Geronimo took a deep breath. His gaze became extremely cold. "First, the Blackwood family can accept a poor daughter-in-law, but not a second-hand product that was swept out of someone else’s house. Second, even if the Blackwood family were to take in a second-hand product, they can’t be a second- hand product abandoned by the Moran family. Third, Joanna Pierce is a woman who brings tragedy. She carries a curse. The Blackwood family can’t risk getting wiped out."

"If you’re just fooling around, I can still turn a blind eye, but you’ve clearly fallen for her hard. If I let you have your way, the Blackwood family will be destroyed in your hands. I have to keep her away from you!"

’That’s bullshit!"

Liam was naturally unconvinced. He was about to argue with Geronimo further when he saw Clara give him a wink.

He thus took a deep breath to suppress his anger and told Geronimo, "But since it’s come to this, I can promise you that I’ll cut all ties with Joanna and stop seeing her, but... I have a condition."

Geronimo felt that his good-for-nothing son finally grew a bit of brain. It seemed like he had not gone crazy yet. Geronimo quickly said, "What’s the condition? I’m all ears. If it’s not too ridiculous, I don’t mind granting your request."
